Around SBN: Jerry Sandusky's Wife Tries To Run A Reporter Over

Manager Ozzie Guillen isn't planning on Bartolo Colon returning to help the White Sox for the rest of the season.

Furthermore, Guillen didn't know the whereabouts of Colon, who hasn't pitched since hurting his right elbow against Detroit on July 24.

"No, he’s not here," Guillen said. "What is it? That’s hard to find out. That’s the hardest question you ask me, where is Colon?

Sox to recall Torres

Torres had start a couple of weeks ago

August 5, 2009, 11:21 PM

By: Bruce Levine

Look for the White Sox to call up right-handed pitcher Carlos Torres to start Saturday’s game against Cleveland.

Torres did a nice job for the team in his one emergency start a couple of weeks ago before going down to Triple-A Charlotte.

they're fairly similar pitchers

and they’re both probably replacement level, so it doesn’t really matter a ton. fwiw, i had forgotten about DJ.

Linebrink has the lowest ‘regular’ bullpen ERA, for example.

that is correct.

not sure DJ gets enough credit. as most know, i’ve been driving the carrasco bandwagon since ST last year so perhaps i’m biased; however, replacement level is not how he’s performed. as a starter, he may inch closer to replacement, though.

Aside from one, maybe two "bad" outings, he has done the job every time he's been called upon this season. Be it long relief or late inning holds...but especially in helping us get through C+C Rehab Factory starts.

There was a stretch there where Ozzie didn’t pitch him and I couldn’t figure out why our most consistent guy was sitting while Linebrink was on his 18,000th blown hold.

he obviously doesn't get enough credit.

per fangraphs, he’s been worth almost a full win so far. that’s a pretty big deal for a middle/long reliever. i’d just be surprised if a journeyman without really impressive stuff was much better than replacement. he and torres have pretty similar stuff, though DJ’s probably got better command and obviously more experience getting major leaguers out.

he and hudson duke it out for ’10 5th starter?

Exactly what did you see in him after 07?

Anyway, it should be noted how odd his career path has been. Drafted by the O’s, released after never playing for them in the minors, picked up by the Indians, does OK for a month and gets cut, gets signed by the Pirates, goes up and down between a few levels before being picked up in the Rule 5 Draft, gets released after a few seasons, probably with an arm injury, misses 06, comes back in 07 to be AAA meat, then signs with the White Sox.

by Daniel Berlyn on Aug 7, 2009 2:23 PM CDT up reply actions  

i saw him in ST and liked him as a backend guy who had the ability to be a decent long man or mop up guy.

plus, he has the proverbial rubber arm. i like his versatility and durability. i wouldn’t have imagined that he would be this effective, i just thought he’d be somewhat better than masset. recall that after the 07 bullpen debacle we were all looking for guys who just wouldn’t implode regularly.

he gets his $1M no matter what (right?) and he has no chance to reach his incentives that start at 100IP. so outside of desire to compete or win a championship, there’s not a whole lot motivating ’Tolo at the moment.

he’s obviously still a major league pitcher, if not an especially good one. pitching scarcity is what it is, man. he’s a low cost mercenary 5th starter. there’s always going to be enough demand for those kinds. also, he’s got an agent right? i’m sure he’s looking out for ’Tolo.

ok ladies and gentlemen

this would be a nice series to sweep. We are playing the indians who have sold off their two best players (or 2 of 3 depending on how you feel about Sizemore). We have just finished a big stretch of good teams, so this could be considered the ultimate trap series. The Sox need to play well against the indians. The tigers are playing the twins this weekend, so if we sweep we could gain a lot of ground on one team, or a little on both of them. Don’t let down now! Bury the Tribe!!!!

Sox have had several sequences — play great, then let down. This would be a perfect let down series. Gotta stop that crap.

Excepting defense, this is a very good team. They’ve really improved their run production (Beckham & Getz) and have very solid pitching. It’s time to keep playing well. Graduate to the next level.

They more than held their own against the AL's best so far this week

- beating the Yankees three of four and taking the first two from the Angels, averaging better than seven runs per game along the way - and the road is about to get a lot easier for Chicago. Starting with a three-game homestand against the Indians this weekend, the Sox play 12 of their next 15 games against the four worst teams in the American League (the Indians, A’s, Royals and Orioles) and the other three games are against the depleted Mariners. Over that same stretch, meanwhile, the Tigers have to play the Twins at home and travel to Boston for a four-game series with the Red Sox.

Speaking of douche "reporters"...

Nice is important to Beckham. While he is now a South Sider, his roots are still all Georgia. That means being respectful, a Southern gentleman.

‘’Very Southern gentleman,’’ Beckham said. ‘’Let me put it straight: If a girl takes me to meet her parents, it’s over, they’re in love with me. That means calling her dad, ‘Sir,’ all that, but both parents will love me.’’

Basically, he’s the antithesis of a former highly touted Sox prospect, Brian Anderson, who would just as soon put the moves on a date’s mom than meet her. But Beckham, he’s from a different school. And the media and fans are eating it up.

Masterson Slated To Start Saturday

http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/news/probable_pitchers.jsp?c_id=cws

Masterson, acquired on July 31 in a trade with the Red Sox for All-Star Victor Martinez, takes the starting spot of Carl Pavano, who was traded to the Twins on Friday. Masterson has made one relief appearance with the Indians, throwing three innings against the Tigers on Aug. 1 and allowing two hits with four strikeouts. Masterson has made six starts this season but has not started a game since May 17. He has appeared in three games lifetime against the White Sox, all in relief, and has allowed one run in 4 2/3 innings.

They call him Bat.

Bat Masterson. (For all of you really old POS’s.)

i certainly wouldn't give up hudson either

but i think toronto might just want to get out from under his contract, and might take lesser prospects to do so. not sure who that would be given that danks, flowers, hudson, and viciedo are apparently considered untouchables in the organization. but i’m sure nobody’s really an untouchable once KW sets his sights on an acquisition.

I wouldn't be shocked

if they just gave him away and got out from underneath that contract.

can’t work out a deal, is the Waiver dead? Or does he get “offered” to the next team?"

from the rios thread:

White Sox? We all know they are shedding a ton of payroll after a few big players contracts expire. Is there enough after Peavy to get Rios? Pods-Rios-Quentin and Dye as DH? Can Rios play CF anymore?

Quentin hurt worse than we think?

Local radio here on the east coast postulated that Q is hurt worse than is being advertised and that Rios makes sense. For what it’s worth, that sounds like a reach to me…

moar from an old friend:
I just have a sneaking suspicion that Kenny Williams is going to get Rios and take a strong run at the Central. With Peavy coming in 3 weeks, the pitching is in great shape, Rios would really bolster the OF, but where would he play? Quentin, Pods, Dye already out there. Unless Thome is only played vs. Righties, and Rios vs. lefties. Ozzie would have to be creative if Kenny does pull it off.

Unless he was claimed by Houston, it would almost have to be us.

Can’t see anyone else having the need and money to go after him. The Jays couldn’t dump salary with a Halladay deal so they might just let him go to a team willing to take his full salary on.
